Hacked Sony Emails Reveal That Sony Had Pirated Books About Hacking

Posted by timothy on from the elephant-books-all-the-way-down dept.

An anonymous reader writes Sony has done a lot of aggressive anti-piracy work in their time, which makes it that much funnier that pirated ebooks were found on their servers from the 2014 hacks that just went on to WikiLeaks. Better yet, the pirated books are educational books about hacking called "Inside Cyber Warfare" and "Hacking the Next Generation" from O'Reilly publishers.

    Um, no it doesn't. That's not even close. It translates to "What is permissible for Jupiter is not permissible for an ox", meaning that gods can do what cattle cannot.
